Top Albums - Intro. to Indie Required Listening

[Hiddenstashes]

List the most essential albums for anyone new to alt/indie. Here's what i cut my teeth on...

The Afghan Whigs - Gentlemen
Dinosaur Jr. - You're Living All Over Me
Fugazi - 13 Songs
Guided by Voices - Bee Thousand
Husker Du - New Day Rising
Jawbox - For My Own Special Sweetheart
The Nation of Ulysses - 13-Point Program to Destroy America
Pavement - Slanted & Enchanted
Pixies - Doolittle
Sonic Youth - Daydream Nation
Sunnyday Real Estate - Diary

Okay someone else's turn

I just got into indie myself and am more partial to "louder" music in general so my list is a little biased in that direction. I'm personally looking for some "must listen" albums on the mellower end of the spectrum so if anyone can help a brother out.

god how many of these ****ing threads do we need

[Hiddenstashes]

um...no one forced you to look at the thread, or to waste your precious time posting to do nothing but whine so if you don't mind, either list some albums or just ignore the bloody thing and piss off.

Thank you kindly

thank you kindly

[Hiddenstashes]

why are you still here?

[2muchket!]

It'd be better if you'd posted in The Community thread. You also would of gotten a better response.

However may I suggest :
Muse - Origin Of Symmetry
Oasis - Whats The Story (Morning Glory) and Definitely Maybe
Arctic Monkeys - Whatever people say I am, Thats What I am not.

Just off the top of my head.

Oasis is the only one of those that can be considered essential to anything (I like the others though).
